Pushpa Impossible
, is overjoyed that the show has completed 900 episodes. Pointing out how rare longevity is in today's television landscape, she says, 'These days, most shows don't even last six months, and we've crossed three years.
That makes this milestone even more meaningful. And personally, it's incredibly special because this is my first Hindi television show.'

She shares, 'When I started out, I was quite impatient. But over time, I've learned to stay calm and grounded. That shift has helped me immensely — not just in my career, but in my personal life too. Prarthana, my character, reflects that strength and composure. She knows what she wants and doesn't let anyone undermine her — not even her father.
There's a quiet spunk in her that I absolutely adore.'
She adds, 'As an actor, I've come to believe in two guiding principles — be kind and don't react unnecessarily.

Indraxi also credits her growth to producer
JD Majethia
, who gave her the opportunity that launched her television career. 'JD sir has truly been a blessing. He gave me my first national television break. When I came to the audition, I was nervous; just a newcomer surrounded by experienced actors. JD sir noticed my hesitation and made sure I felt at ease. On my first day on set, I was overwhelmed. I had just moved from Kolkata, and emotions were running high. But JD sir supported me through those early days, and I'll always be grateful to him for believing in me and helping me navigate this journey,' she concludes.
